In this episode, we discuss the difference between building a personal brand and a business brand. I discuss with you these three main things that I think are important when building up your brand. 1. Have an expertise and substance behind what you are taking to market. 2. Stand for something, when you have something to say, you’ll have the voice to say it. 3. Say it. Build your own audience and talk to them.

I always talk about education, particularly in the context of entrepreneurship. In this episode I discuss where I think traditional education needs to lift its game and how traditional education is set up, not according to student completion rate or outcomes of learning, but is ranked based on the academic research that they conduct, and the research that they publish. This is a 4.4 trillion dollar industry globally, yet no one is looking at the product and at how to make teaching better.
